This sounds very challenging. I'm really glad you are seeking help for it. You can't go wrong in developing life skills on how to cope with stress and fear, and wise advice on decisions to make as well. Praying for you to have peace and guidance from the Lord.
Thank you, Grace. Thank you, Siberian. Your prayers and encouraging words are very much appreciated. :)

I am sitting in a restaurant by myself. A friend and I were going to go to IHOP for their free pancakes, but they were insanely packed, more so than I thought they'd be. There was a line out the door just to put your name on the waiting list to get in.

My friend isn't here yet, at the other restaurant we decided on. I know she's on her way from work, but I've been sitting here for about 25 minutes and I feel so awkward and like all the waitresses/waiters think I'm getting stood up. Thank goodness for my phone. No one wants to get stood up, but I now realize how painful it would be.

Hmm, I feel phones (among other things) are part of what make us so disconnected these days. But then I'm the loner weirdo in the corner of the coffee shop reading a book, so I probably shouldn't speak too much on being disconnected, haha.

I just meant I was glad I wasn't sitting there fiddling, I could play on my phone to pass the time. But otherwise, I agree. :)

She ended up taking so long because she ran out of gas and didn't have money at the moment for it, so she had to scrounge up cash in her car. So I bought her dinner and gas after. She's an amazing person, she's had a super hard past 3 months.

Aw, how sweet of you, Rachel. :)

We tried IHOP also. What a maelstrom...We ended up getting Mongolian food instead.

Like of a sparrow or something or a creative looking cross.

SSSSINNERR!! Depart from us, doer/thinker of iniquity! :p

Oh, I mean, umm. Yeah, sounds cool! :D I've always thought if I ever got a tattoo, I'd want a tiny little dove on my shoulder or something.









Hi, guys! :D

I thought I'd catch everyone up a bit.


I will not be losing my pets. My dad and his girlfriend are deciding to hold off until next year. This makes things much less stressful for me. I will still look for a job in hopes to save money aside for when that time comes to pass. I can live on-campus at college without worry, and college is definite. I haven't been accepted yet. I need to send in some things, but I'm extremely optimistic. I have a feeling that in due time, God will give me everything I need.

Now, if only Spring would grace us with its presence...

So my place was actually clean today for a few hours. Then, the CATastrophe hit.

I had given my cats a scratching toy for Christmas, and for reasons that I won't get into, got it out of the package for them only today. In it is a little zipper pouch where some catnip (included) goes. So I fill the little pouch with catnip, but I forget to put the bag away containing the unused catnip. I go back into the living room to find Marty with the ripped bag in his mouth, chewing it while rolling around in the leaves, with Inkblot just watching him, mesmerized.

Now, I am cleaning up. Marty is chillaxin'...and Inky's got the munchies.

If 'manis' and 'pedis' are some type of food, I'll be there. If not, I won't be. :p

What would the matching tattoo be? I think a cat would be appropriate. I think the cat is the CC mascot by this point. LOL

For the record, I would NEVER get a tat. haha I'd be too scared of regretting it later.

I am hugely scared of needles and would only get second piercings and that's only if I were brave enough to. So tattoos are pretty much outta the question for me.

Haha :p I would want something like that too, mostly because it would be hardly noticeable but would still be there....subtle art is my fave. I mostly haven't gone that far into thinking about it because of complications of pricing and the factor of going to go experience pain to have something implanted on your skin for life. lol

LIL!! Happy to see you! And yay for delays that benefit you, and definite plans for college! I'm glad you are feeling encouraged, and have some solid direction to work toward. That probably really helps. (((hugs))) Exciting stuff!
